@RiotRepertoir Teemo needs more ult buffs.
I was very excited to see the recent change on PBE which gave his shrooms 7 minute duration. I think it was a mistake to revert that change. Teemo's winrate has been declining despite receiving small buffs in 5.20 and 6.1. He has less than 50% winrate even against some champions that he should counter (Nasus). I dont think the new items will change that. First of all AP teemo mainly scales with mpen/cdr/ap. None of the new items provides mpen, and mpen rush is just so much better on AP Teemo than ap rush due to his low scalings. By the time you get the core of Liandries, Void, Sorc and Rabadons or Nashor's, which is when Teemo could possibly waste an item slot for one of the new items, it's already super late game and you're better off getting a defensive item instead. Most of them provide mana and a passive based around mana, in the fashion similar to the current RoA, which is built in less than 2% of all teemo games - teemo just doesn't synergize with the new items well. If he wants a mana item, it's always better to get morello for the cdr. His ultimate is also hard countered by the new red trinket - a free item that one person on the enemy team pops and your enitre lane of shrooms is gone without dealing any damage. Other than maybe a possible W change, ult duration buff is one of the best possible solutions to buff AP teemo. Please reconsider that change, thanks.
